COVID vaccines and neuropathy

I also saw an interesting YouTube video of Dr. Brandon Beaber, neurologist, who was talking about some of the side effects he's seen from the vax. At the end of his video, he talks about a patient he consulted and discussed with the doctor of a patient (he didn't actually treat the patient) who developed, after the Pfizet vaccine, Transverse Myelitis. This sounded suspiciously like what I'm experiencing.

I still haven't had any more blood work done. I work in a pharmacy. You can only imagine how busy we are with all this Covid stuff. It's crazy!

I will be talking with my doctor next week about getting some additional blood work done targeting the suggestions y'all have made. (Thanks for all of the useful tips.)

Thank you for posting this. I posted in this discussion last February after my neuropathy became significantly worse following the first Pfizer shot I received. Because I’m a transplant recipient, I went ahead and got the second shot. Again, my neuropathy increased.

I only started having neuropathy symptoms late last year. I had my first appointment with a neurologist shortly after my second shot. My neurologist thought my neuropathy was caused by a new autoimmune disease (I already have two, previously diagnosed). Labs confirmed this.

He also told me that he wasn’t surprised that I had such a reaction to the vaccines, as such reactions apparently occurred after other vaccinations as well. Needless to say, even though a booster is recommended for immunocompromised people, I won’t be running out to get one! Which is really too bad as I’m very supportive of the need for people to be vaccinated in order for this pandemic to end.
